Assignment operators are used to assign a value to a variable. The most common assignment operator is the equals sign (=).

For example, let's say we have a variable called `x` and we want to assign the value of 5 to it. We can do it like this:

```javascript
let x = 5;
```

This means that the value of `x` is now 5. We can also use other arithmetic operators in combination with the equals sign to perform a calculation and then assign the result to the variable. For example:

```javascript
let y = 10;
y += 5; // equivalent to y = y + 5
```

This means that the value of `y` is now 15. We can also use other arithmetic operators in combination with the equals sign:

```javascript
let z = 20;
z -= 5; // equivalent to z = z - 5
```

This means that the value of `z` is now 15.

There are also other assignment operators like `*=`, `/=`, and `%=` that work in the same way. They perform an arithmetic operation and then assign the result to the variable.

```javascript
let a = 5;
a *= 2; // equivalent to a = a * 2
```

This means that the value of `a` is now 10.

-   `=` - Assignment Operator
-   `+=` - Addition Assignment
-   `-=` - Subtraction Assignment
-   `*=` - Multiplication Assignment
-   `/=` - Division Assignment
-   `%=` - Modulus Assignment
-   `**=` - Exponentiation Assignment

In the exercise below, you will have a variable `x` with value `3`. Select the correct assignment operator to assign the value of each result.

```javascript
let x = 3;
```
